Please help me with number eight I don't understand it. Please note I am 60 years old trying to help my son learn chemistry and this is not a test.

Expert Solution

Step 1

When a liquid ionic solute is dissolved in a non-polar solvent, three different layers are formed.

The compound generally follows "like dissolve like" that means a polar solute will be dissolved in polar solvent and a non-polar solute will be dissolved in non-polar solvent.

Ionic solute contains ions which are free to move in the solution.
